Construction Site Security Guards and Patrols in Massachusetts
Licensed, OSHA-10 certified officers, marked patrol vehicles and monitored cameras that keep your job site, your equipment and your schedule intact.
Protect your job site after the crew goes home
An active construction site is an open-air warehouse. Copper, lumber, tools, fuel and heavy equipment sit behind a temporary fence, and most losses happen at night, on weekends and over holidays when nobody is there to notice.
The stolen material is rarely the biggest cost. A single theft brings reorder delays, idle crews, insurance claims and a schedule that slips.
New England Security has protected construction sites across Massachusetts since 2000. General contractors, developers and subcontractors rely on our construction security team to keep their sites closed to anyone who does not belong there.
What we protect your site against
- Theft of tools, copper, building materials and equipment
- Vandalism, graffiti and arson
- Trespassers, and the liability that comes with them
- Unauthorized vehicles and unverified deliveries
- Fire risk during hot work or while sprinkler and alarm systems are offline
- Open gates, fence breaches and other after-hours hazards
Construction site security services
On-site security guards
Uniformed armed or unarmed officers posted at your site for nights, weekends or around-the-clock coverage. They control the gate, check in visitors and deliveries, walk the perimeter and document what they find.
Mobile patrols
Marked mobile patrol vehicles check your site at random intervals through the night. Officers inspect gates, fencing, trailers and equipment on every visit. Patrols are a cost-effective fit for smaller sites and for contractors with several projects running at once.
Fire watch
Every officer on our construction security team is a certified fire watch guard. We cover hot work, impaired sprinkler or alarm systems and any period when your site needs a dedicated watch.
Camera systems and remote monitoring
We install security cameras on your site and monitor them remotely. Cameras cover the areas a guard cannot watch all at once, and give you a record of everything that happens after hours.
Alarm installation and monitoring
Monitored alarms for job trailers, storage containers, tool cribs and finished floors.

Construction site security FAQ
How much does construction site security cost?
Cost depends on the hours of coverage, the number of officers, whether they are armed, and whether you use on-site guards, mobile patrols, cameras or a mix. We assess your site and give you a written quote.
Do I need a guard on site, or are mobile patrols enough?
It depends on what is stored on site and how exposed it is. High-value materials, open access or a history of theft usually call for a posted guard. Smaller or well-fenced sites are often covered well by randomized patrols and monitored cameras.
Do your guards provide fire watch?
Yes. Every officer on our construction security team is a certified fire watch guard.
Are your officers trained for construction sites?
Yes. Officers assigned to construction sites are OSHA-10 certified, and New England Security is licensed, insured and bonded.
Can you cover nights, weekends and holidays only?
Yes. Most construction clients need coverage when the crew is off site. We also provide 24/7 coverage and daytime gate control.
Do you offer armed security for construction sites?
Yes. We provide both armed and unarmed officers, and will recommend the right option after assessing your site.
